Abstract

In this Letter, we analytically explore the effect of the Hawking radiation on the quantum correlation and Bell non-locality for Dirac particles in the background of Schwarzschild black hole. It is shown that when the Hawking effect is almost nonexistent, corresponding to the case of an almost extreme black hole, the quantum properties of physically accessible state are the same for the initial situation. For finite Hawking temperature T, the accessible quantum correlation monotonously decreases along with increasing T owing to the thermal fields generated by the Hawking effect, and the accessible quantum non-locality will be disappeared when the Hawking temperature is more than a fixed value which increases with the parameter r of Werner state growing. Then we analyze the redistribution of quantum correlation, and find that for the case of the Hawking temperature being infinite, corresponding to the case of the black hole evaporating completely, the quantum correlation of physically accessible state is equal to the one of the inaccessible states. Moreover, due to the Pauli exclusion principle and the differences between Fermi–Dirac and Bose–Einstein statistics, for the Dirac fields the accessible classical correlation decreases with increase of the Hawking temperature, which is different for the scalar fields. For Bell non-locality, we also find that the quantum non-locality is always extinct for physically inaccessible states, and the strength of the non-locality decreases with enlarging intensity of Hawking effect when the non-locality is existent in physically accessible state.

Quantum estimation for Dirac particles with the Hawking effect in the background of a Schwarzschild black hole

Cheng‐Cheng Liu, Jiadong Shi, Zhiyong Ding +3 more

Abstract In this paper, we analytically explore the effect of Hawking radiation on quantum Fisher information (QFI) for Dirac particles in the background of Schwarzschild black hole. What surprise us is that the Hawking radiation could not disturb QFI with respect to the state parameter ( ). Additionally, we also find in the case of an almost extreme black hole, or when the black hole is approximate to evaporating completely, QFI with respect to the Hawking temperature T ( ) always being zero indicates that the parameter estimation precision about the Hawking temperature is minimum in the two situations above. In particular, the maximal is obtained when the Hawking temperature is a fixed value for every state parameter . Furthermore, we investigate how the Hawking effect influences the distribution of the QFI over subsystems in physical accessible regions and find that QFI can be either subadditive or superadditive, depending on the specific parameter under the Hawking effect. At last, we also study the QFI of other possible bipartite divisions, which are physically inaccessible, and the nontrivial results reveal that QFI is averagely distributed in different physical regions.

Property of various correlation measures of open Dirac system with Hawking effect in Schwarzschild space–time

Juan He, Shuai Xu, Yang Yu +1 more

We explore the performance of various correlation measures for open Dirac system with Hawking effect in Schwarzschild space–time. Our results indicate that the impact of Hawking effect on physical accessible entanglement is weaker than that of decoherence. For generalized amplitude damping (GAD) channel, the entanglement sudden death (ESD) is analyzed in detail, and the inequivalence of quantization for Dirac particles in the black hole and Kruskal space–time is verified via quantum discord measure. In addition, as an example for interpreting Bell non-locality, we study the GAD channel with Hawking effect. It can be noticed that there is a boundary line of Bell violation for physically accessible states. That is, quantum non-locality would disappear when Hawking temperature exceeds a certain value. This critical temperature increases as a decoherence parameter decreases. In the case of phase damping (PD) channel, the interaction between the particle and noise environment does not produce bipartite system–environment entanglement. Then we discuss entanglement distributions, and find that the reduced physically accessible entanglement can be redistributed to physical inaccessible region. At last, we extend our investigation to an N-qubit system, and obtain a universal expression of the physical accessible entanglement.

How the Hawking effect affects multipartite entanglement of Dirac particles in the background of a Schwarzschild black hole

Shuai Xu, Xue‐Ke Song, Jiadong Shi +1 more

In this paper, the effect of Hawking radiation on the multipartite entanglement of Dirac particles in the background of a Schwarzschild black hole is investigated. It is shown that all the 1-tangles decrease as the Hawking temperature grows, and the Coffman--Kundu--Wootters monogamy inequality is always saturated in this system. It is also shown that the entanglement's status of subsystems, which have the same quantum state, depend on its detector's position, and this proposition can be generalized to a multipartite system. Then, we find that the Hawking effect does not change the entanglement structure of the quantum state in Schwarzschild space-time. In addition, we discuss the distributions of quantum information and find that not only is the entanglement redistributed, but also the mutual information is distributed to the physical inaccessible region. At last, we calculate the mutual information of a $N$-qubit multipartite system, ${|\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Psi}}⟩}_{123\dots{}N}={(\ensuremath{\beta}{|0⟩}^{\ensuremath{\bigotimes}N}+\sqrt{1\ensuremath{-}{\ensuremath{\beta}}^{2}}{|1⟩}^{\ensuremath{\bigotimes}N})}_{123\dots{}N}$, and draw a conclusion that when the black hole approximates to evaporate completely the mutual information of this system will be close to $(N\ensuremath{-}1)/N$ of the original if a particle freely falls in toward a Schwarzschild black hole and locates near the event horizon, and the other particles remain in the asymptotically flat region.

Quantum nonlocality phenomena in scalar and Dirac fields near a Schwarzschild black hole

Wen‐Yang Sun, Wenchao Ma, Dong Wang +1 more

Abstract In this work, we explore the impact of the Hawking effect on quantum nonlocality, specifically the maximum violation of the Bell-CHSH inequality, for both scalar and Dirac fields within Schwarzschild spacetime. We reveal the nuanced behavior of the Bell-CHSH inequality as the Hawking temperature (HT) varies. For scalar fields, we observe distinct degradation patterns in the Bell-CHSH inequality, influenced by the state parameter α and its normalized counterpart 1 − α 2 . In contrast, Dirac fields exhibit two distinct degradation trajectories, each converging to different nonzero minimum values as HT approaches infinity T → ∞ , however, this does not apply to the maximally entangled state. Remarkably, the maximum violation of Bell-CHSH inequality becomes zero for scalar fields at infinite HT, while it stabilizes at a finite nonzero value for Dirac fields. Additionally, the quantum nonlocality robustness of the Dirac fields is stronger than that of the scalar fields. Therefore, this study enhances our understanding of the dynamic characteristics of nonlocality within scalar and Dirac fields near a Schwarzschild black hole.

Genuinely accessible and inaccessible entanglement in Schwarzschild black hole

Shu-Min Wu, Xiao-Wei Teng, Jinxuan Li +3 more

The genuine entanglement of Dirac fields for an N-partite system is investigated in Schwarzschild spacetime and the analysis is carried out using the single-mode approximation. Due to the Hawking effect, quantum entanglement is divided into two parts physically accessible and inaccessible entanglement. We obtain a general analytic expression of genuine N-partite entanglement that includes all accessible and inaccessible entanglement in a Schwarzschild black hole. Unlike bosonic entanglement, the accessible N-partite entanglement of Dirac fields monotonically decreases to a nonzero value with the Hawking temperature. Interestingly, the inaccessible N-partite entanglement is a monotonic or non-monotonic function of the Hawking temperature, depending on the ratio between accessible and inaccessible modes, in contrast to bipartite or tripartite entanglement that is only a monotonic function of the Hawking temperature. Finally, we obtain two restrictive relationships for the quantum information of the black hole. This conclusion provides a new understanding of Hawking effect of the black hole.

Symmetry resolved quantum correlations under Hawking radiation in Schwarzschild spacetime

Wajid Joyia, M. A. Khan, Asif Ilyas +1 more

Abstract We investigate the behavior of quantum correlations and quantum uncertainty in tripartite systems subjected to Hawking radiation in the background of a Schwarzschild black hole. By considering different bipartitions of accessible and inaccessible field modes separated by the event horizon, we analyze three complementary quantum information measures: the symmetry resolved entanglement entropy (SREE), the quantum speed limit (QSL), and the Wigner Yanase Skew information (SI). Our analysis shows that the QSL decreases monotonically with increasing Hawking temperature, indicating that Hawking radiation enhances the distinguishability of the reduced quantum states along the Hawking radiation trajectory. In contrast, the skew information decreases only for partitions composed solely of accessible modes, reflecting a reduction in local quantum uncertainty caused by thermal mixing. The SREE, however, decreases only when the subsystem includes the inaccessible inside horizon mode of Alice, revealing a suppression of symmetry sector mixing due to the redistribution of entanglement across the horizon. These results demonstrate that Hawking radiation does not simply degrade quantum correlations but instead redistributes them between accessible and inaccessible sectors of the field. The combined analysis of SREE, SI, and QSL therefore provides a unified perspective on how relativistic effects reshape quantum information in curved spacetime.
